Friday Foolishness – Last Minute Edition

And here we are again. Another Friday, another round of foolishness. But there was foolishness all around the web this week. Even though I was again ridiculously busy and couldn’t get around near as much as I wanted, here are just a few of the many posts that stood out to me this week:
Susie Lindau celebrated her blogiversary in a very fun, clever way. Make sure you check out the comments!
Bestbathroombooks revealed the truth about us all. And after hours of frustration, Zannyro finally got the Baldy video up. Check out the few posts before the linked one – they’re pretty funny!
Thanks a whole lot to you guys, and everyone else. Like I always say, you make every week a little more fun!

Enjoy checking those out.
And for those of you who were wondering about last weeks poll.
The question was, I think, therefore… And here’s what you had to say. (As always, my snark is expressed in italics.)

bananas(Great, now I’m thinking of ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream and sprinkles…)I dont want a pickle I just wanna ride my motor cy cle.. lizzie(Are you hitting on my wife? 😉it’s time to get off the pot and flush the toilet. morezennow(I’d wait til I knew for sure…)I am superior to “those people” at Walmart. Benzeknees(I believe “thinking” is grounds for you being barred from there.)What was I looking for? (Elyse, 54.5)(I’m not sure, but they’re on top of your head.)I’m spacy.(No, you’re Stacy.)I’m spacy. (As I just exhibited while forgetting to sign my name.) Stacy Lyn(I’m Guapo. Nice to meet you!)…Or does that mean I don’t think? Stacy Lyn(It’s hard to tell here in the asylum…)my BRRRAAAIIINNNSSS smoke. Red.(You know, Smokey says only you can prevent forest fires.)I’m in great big trouble. Too much. thinking – BAD!(Think about ways to cause mischief! -GOOD!)I am not a Fox News pundit(See the above about Walmart!)I drink. Stay Abnormal(But do you think about what you drink?)I am sure you don’t REALLY wanna know-lizzie 🙂(We want to know, LizzieC. I just don’t think we could handle it!)i bust my head trying to figure out something clever but picked BRAINS! instead(BRAINS is always the thinking persons choice. (Just not sure what it means they’re thinking about!))Don’t think. Just sleep! –Lily(WE HAVE A WINNER!!!)…people always ask, “Hey, what’s burning?” Michelle at Motley News(I also forget about what I’m cooking when I thin- Oh, good one! hehehe)Yam — Linda Vernon(Do you then ask yourself “Tuber or not tuber?”)I have to pay taxes (Why then do politicians have to pay taxes?)(If you thought more,you might find a way out of that…)I can’t sleep – Hobbler(Think about sheep. Stalking you. In speedos.)I love The A-Team(no name for this, but I’m pretty sure it’s Howlin’ Mad Heather.)(Do you think they can help? And more importantly, do you think you can find them?)can usually thwart my cat’s attempts to kill me. Usually. (ODNT)(That’s just what the cat wants you to think!)can usually thwart my cat’s attempts to kill me. Usually. (ODNT)(Hey, did the cat write this?)the world may continue turning… you’re very welcome!(So this is your fault…)Wait…I had a thought? How exciting! What was it?

John Phillips(writing a check to the Guapola concert/vacation fund?)Sam I am, so bring on the green eggs and ham. (Frank)(Would you eat them on a roll? Or while you were answering a poll?)

Congratulations to Lily for this weeks winning answer! And the most popular of the offered choices was (by a wide margin) I think I would like a pickle. I think kayjai set a trend!And that catches us all up just in time for this weeks poll. Like the title implies, I fell a bit behind this week. Honestly, I didn’t even realize it was almost Friday until TMWGITU asked me what the poll would be. That was Thursday at 10pm.
And I had nothing.
So once again, real life has inspired me. Because this isn’t the first time I had to run like hell just to catch up. It happens to all of us.
So this week, the poll is what you don’t remember when your brain feels left behind…

You should buy a cheap but decent bottle of wine, bury it someplace and leave a note for great-great-great-great granddaughter to bring it with her, Kayjai!
Mmmm, and a use of science everyone can get behind!

It is a man, and I’m not sure. He is an artist and I’m pretty sure he’s married. He is selling me a bit on the idea of being one though. If you go to the about section on my blog, he is in the comments

Dang .. I remember Kaki King playing that live on Echoes! Three interesting links from this week. As a Les reader, I can say that he is officially off the way. Zannyro’s video makes me wonder if she’s related to Les. Susie’s was quite creative! Have a good weekend!

The idea of meeting my parents before I was born probably would have had me begging God for a different set of parents! haha! “Surely, there must be two other people that match my needs more perfectly?” haha!

I like Linda’s answer, “Yam.” She’s nothing if not succinct. Oh, and your reply is perfect, I might add. Only you would think to use the word Tuber in a question! ha!

No, not this time, but I did forget the dog in the car overnight once. Fortunately, it was fall and he likes being in the car, so no harm done. Also fortunately, I don’t have to ‘worry’ about ‘speeding’ anymore, thanks to my magical license plate which the DMV inadvertently didn’t register to my name. Woo! No way to trace those tickets back to me. I hope you’re not in law enforcement…

I have to apologize, Laura, but I was laughing my head off reading about the frantic seven minutes.
I have to ask – did you laugh when you realized what happened and the dog was ok? (and has it become part of your lore?)

Glad to have brightened your Friday!! 😉 Uh, yeah, I kinda laughed, after I felt like the world’s stupidist pet owner! I was horrified that not only had Diego been in the car for 12 hrs, but I HADN’T EVEN NOTICED he wasn’t around from like, 8 pm-8 am! ! I mean, I can be drifty sometimes, but I really outdid myself with that one. Writing about him, I realize how much I miss that bad boy. He died 2 yrs ago. You can see a couple pictures here http://liveclay.wordpress.com/2010/08/05/when-do-you-know-its-time/

Look, a bird! Okay, okay. There wasn’t really a bird. Well, there could have been. Did you see one? Back to what I was saying. I was led her by our mutual pal the hobbler. She hobbled into my life a few weeks ago and now she has me on a wild good chase sorting through these porn posts. Now I’m following you. Don’t let me down. You wouldn’t like me when I’m angry.

A footnote:
WP has been fooling around with our blogs again. As you start commenting on other blogs take note, the Notify me of new comment is ticked, make sure you untick this or you may have e-mails coming from everywhere.

addendum: one of my fave sax players is David Sanborn, or as I and my friends call him ; Mr High F#…. lol. Only person who could reign him in was Brian Ferry. There’s a reason Gaucho was the least fave Dan album ever…and the only one Sanborn played on with the Dan -grin-

If I could time travel – I would go back to this morning so I could get a better position in the poll..er comment section. no wait – I’d go back to last night and ..something about banans. and to answer your question.

Tuber or not tuber indeed!!!! I might welcome a visit from my future relatives — as long as they weren’t related to the in-law side of the family. Yuk yuk yuk. My brain Peanuts is proof that black holes exist so that means time travel is possible? I think. Would you mind explaining what I’m talking about twinkle toes?

When you hit the lottery, make sure you buy a separate bathroom for everyone in the house. Can’t wait to see what you come up with after an extended thought session!
One question – do you find yourself thinking more profoundly during number one or number two?
Wait – never mind. I don’t want to know.

We were waiting for you to chime in of course,
now get your kit off, oop’s sorry wrong line, I
mean get your bags unpacked and enjoy the
fun of El Guapo’s, I always miss it but from now
on I will try and get here sooner 🙂 😉 lol
